To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES P. MCGIMSEY, of the city of Memphis, county of Shelby, and State of Tennessee, have invented an Improvement in Compounding Soap. I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof.

The nature of my invention consists in making, from three of Golgates preparations, a cheap, econ0- mical soft soap, for washing and all other uses, it having proven in actual tests that it will do more work, and better, than when any of them (its compounds) is used separately.

To enable others skilled in the art to make and use this my invention,1 will proceed to describe its construction and operation.

I take- N o. I, Oolgates No. 1 extract, (s0ap,) ten and onehalf pounds;
